## Asymptotes Worked Examples ## Asymptotes Worked Examples
Asymptotes of a curve is defined as a line, such that as the curve goes to infinity it will tend to meet that line. Asymptotes is the line of a curve as it approaches infinity, but never crosses the line indefinately.
Example, Example,
Take the curve of f(x) = (1/x) Take the curve of f(x) = (1/x)

Figure 1: curve of f(x) = (1/x)
Here you can see that the lines x = 0 and y = 0 tends to meet the curve at infinity. Here you can see that the lines x = 0 and y = 0 tends to meet the curve at infinity.
